Kay Marsteller Obituary

ELIDA — Kay Marie Marsteller, 76, of Elida, passed away on Thursday, November 15, 2018 at 1:10 a.m. at St. Rita's Medical Center in Lima.

Kay worked at Gregg's Department store and later worked at Hart's in the jewelry department, where she eventually became a gemologist and later worked at Kay's Jewelers. She loved and cherished her kids, grandkids and great-grandkids. She enjoyed cruising, cross-stitching, sitting by the campfire, and most of all reading and spending time in the library.
